Episode 487: Antonio Sabato Jr.: From Teen Heartthrob to Boxing at 53 (And Why He Was Blacklisted from Hollywood)
Descripción del Episodio
Remember your biggest celebrity crush from the '90s? Mine was Antonio Sabato Jr., and now he's sitting across from me explaining how he went from Calvin Klein model and soap opera star to construction worker to boxing professionally at 53.
In this episode of Habits and Hustle, Antonio opens up about his decade-long blacklisting from Hollywood after supporting Trump and his journey through addiction and recovery. We also duve into his intense fitness regimen, his relationships with Madonna, Pamela Anderson, and Jennifer Love Hewitt, and why he's now throwing punches in Philadelphia instead of throwing in the towel.
Antonio Sabato Jr. is an actor, model, and former soap opera star best known for his Calvin Klein campaigns and roles on General Hospital and Melrose Place. After being blacklisted from Hollywood, he worked in construction in Florida and is now making his comeback through professional boxing and real estate.
